Lunch Break

Two 15-year-old schoolboys, Dilawar and Adil, embark on a mysterious quest to find a bullet in their school's auditorium. Despite facing other challenges, the main motive becomes the bullet. In the auditorium, they discover two bullets and hastily leave when someone enters. Back in the classroom, a surprising revelation occurs as the boys seem to have vanished. The teacher announces a silent tribute to students lost in a past attack. The narrative concludes with the school getting back on track, and the boys grapple with the mysteries of their tragic past, revisiting their second home and memories.
